- Summary:
- Going West? questions how the Neolithic way of life was diffused from the Near East to Europe via Anatolia. The contributors have focused their studies on the vast area of the Eastern Balkans and the Pontic region between the Bosporus and the rivers Strymon, Danube and Dniestr, offering an overview of the current state of research regarding the Neolithisation of these areas and also providing useful starting points for future investigations. Using previous studies as a basis for fresh research, this volume presents exciting new interpretations by analyzing recently discovered materials and applying modern methods of interdisciplinary investigations.
